Just a beautifully played and sung song @KevinZ

Love this song – Fantastic performance and vocals @david_m_dm. The timing and strumming in the ‘brother’ section does look challenging, but you nailed it. I can’t believe you did this in one take. I’m envious.

In a perfect week

1. How many times will you play? In a perfect week, I’ll play daily (7xweek)

2. When will you play? I do my daily lessons every weekday at 11:30 a.m. I typically practice scales, finger exercises while sitting on my couch in the evenings (during commercials on t.v.). I practice a fingerpicking or flatpicking song that I’m working on around 12:00 p.m. every weekday, and several times throughout the day when I pick up the guitar for 10-15 minute stretches. I’m also working on a few songs, and I’ll practice them right after practice during the lunch hour and throughout the day/evening during 10-15 minute stretches. I spend more time on these songs on the weekends.

3. Where will you play? I always practice on my lunch hour during the week in my bedroom (that’s where my laptop typically is). I practice during the 10-15 minute breaks typically in my livingroom. I’m in the process of converting a space in an upstairs vacant bedroom to a music room, but I have guitars in several rooms of the house and I can reach for one wherever I am.

I love this song too @Carol-3M-Stillhand . Fantastic performance, as always. I love watching you play. btw, I couldn’t watch your video in the forum. I had to click on watch it in YouTube to watch it.

Hi @Cadgirl – I print to pdf and save copies on my computer. I was under the impression that we could search forums, but I don’t see that capability. Another bummer.

I actually enjoy doing them. Great win Ted

Hi @bill_brown Yes, I didn’t realize I was plugged in until after I taped. Therefore, you get a little reverb. I went with the video, because there were few mistakes. I want to move onto the next fingerpicking song, so I decided to post this one now and move forward. I can do it faster, but I tend to make more mistakes then.

I don’t have that icon, but then again I can’t see much with this color scheme. Everything washes out, difficult to read with the size/color of font. Where at the bottom should I be seeing this?
